abstract: OBJECTIVE
  Examine safety of TVT-O.
  
  
  METHODS
  Experimental study.
  
  
  METHODS
  Gynekologicko-porodnická klinika 1. LF UK a VFN, Institute of Anatomy, Institute of Pathology LF U.K., Praha.
  
  
  METHODS
  We inserted TVT-O in fourteen formalin-embalmed bodies with legs mal-positioned. After dissection distances from the branches of obturator nerve to the inserter were measured.
  
  
  RESULTS
  In embalmed bodies, the mean distance to the anterior branch of the obturator nerve was 8.6 mm on the left, 7.1 mm on the right. Mean distance to the posterior branch of the obturator nerve was 8.4 mm on the left, 8.9 mm on the right.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The position of the legs is crucial for correct placement of TVT-O.
